The Cap Faction

Very nice site Stuffsmith. You will do well this. Can you give brief explanation of how you resize?

 

[Stuffsmith]

Thanks Milliedog! Much appreciated. At this early stage I would like to keep my techniques for resizing close to the chest, I'm sure you understand. It's safe for the caps, and it works!

Nice job Keith, I bookmarked your site and impatiently await something in my size.

 

[Stuffsmith]

Thanks Mike! What size are you? Remember I can size some if them!

Thanks, Dale! If nothing else, it'll fund the obsession...

Filming the MGM lion footage that is still used to this day.

Trying my hand at making an 8 dart cap using as a model one of my true treasures - a 1920 deadstock French casquette in mint condition. Miles is taking a rare turn wearing it, it fits him perfectly. Isn't it beautiful?

Regarding my own efforts, I can't say how much more I appreciate Johnny's and Barry's prowess. Bloody hard work!!

 

[TheDane]

Very beautiful caps ... and you make even more beautiful kids :eusa_clap

 

[Zombie_61]

Very beautiful caps ... and you make even more beautiful kids :eusa_clap

I couldn't agree more on both counts! [Sarcasm]It's a shame they don't look like each other though.[/Sarcasm]

 

[Simonds]

You are a natural Keith! :eusa_clap Like the stamp too!

 

[Stuffsmith]

Dane/Zombie - they're twins[no sarcasm]!

Let me clarify that last post - Miles is wearing the ACTUAL 1920 cap, the other shots are my knock-off coming together. Waiting for the hessian to arrive next week to finish the job. But thanks for the vote of confidence, Barry! I will enjoy making some for myself, but I'll leave the vocation to you pros!

Btw. looking at picture I can't help wondering, Keith ... are you sure you need the extra lenses and very bright light? Have you ever tried to sew with wide open eyes?

Sorry, but I finally had the chance to pass on one of the lines I so often hear myself. Just you wait till the twins get a little older

HAHAHAHAHAHA!! So true... Pushin' 50, mate!

 

[TheDane]

You poo' little fella ... 58 here. Three wellspoken kids, five grands and only one pair of well worn eyes. Why do you think I hear that line so often

I saw the "remix"-poster for your site. Your eyes may be aging, but you sure know how to keep them sharp! The cap is another great proof

 

[Chepstow]

Keith, you are a natural talent. That logo looks professional and the sewing work too!
I think a new Cap maker is born. Well done my friend!
